The paper investigates the efficient use of a linearly implicit stiff integrator for the numerical solution of density driven flow problems. Upon choosing a one-step method of extrapolation type (code LIMEX), the use of full Jacobians and reduced approximations are discussed. Numerical experiments include nonlinear density flow problems such as diffusion from a salt dome (2D), a (modified) Elder problem (3D), the saltpool benchmark (3D) and a real life salt dome problem (2D). The arising linear equations are solved using either a multigrid preconditioner from the software package UG4 or the sparse matrix solver SuperLU.
In this paper we propose a technique for a priori turbulent flame speed tabulation (TFST) for a given parameter space in standard combustion-regime diagrams. It can be used as a subgrid-scale (SGS) model in Large Eddy Simulation (LES). In a first step, stationary laminar flamelets are computed and stored over the progress variable following the ideas of flamelet generated manifolds (FGM). In a second step, the incompressible one-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations supplemented by the equation for the progress variable are solved on a grid that resolves all turbulent scales. Additionally, turbulent transport is implemented via the linear eddy model (LEM). The turbulent flame structures are solved until a statistically stationary mean value of the turbulent flame speed has been reached. The results are stored in a table that could be used by large scale premixed combustion models, e.g. front tracking schemes. Results are compared to an algebraic model and to direct numerical simulations (DNS).
Sensitivity analysis of linearly-implicit differential-algebraic systems by one-step extrapolation
(2002)
In this work we present an approach for the sensitivity analysis of linearly-implicit differential-algebraic equation systems. Solutions for both, states and sensitivities are obtained by applying an extrapolated linearly implicit Euler discretization scheme. This approach is compared to the widely used sensitivity extensions of multi-step BDF methods by means of case studies. Especially, we point out the benefit of this method in the context of dynamic optimization using the sequential approach.
This paper describes a new simulation tool for the prediction of aerosol formation and behavior in gas--liquid contact devices such as absorbers, scrubbers, quench coolers, and condensers as well as multistage gas cleaning processes, respectively. Aerosol formation can impact severely the separation efficiency of gas cleaning processes. Aerosol or fog formation can arise by spontaneous condensation or desublimation in supersaturated gas phases. The rigorous description of the mass and energy transfer between the gas phase, the liquid phase, and the growing aerosol droplets leads to a system of partial differential and algebraic equations. For the solution of these systems we have developed the plant simulation tool AerCoDe. This program bases upon the linearly--implicit Euler discretisation, which in combination with extrapolation permits an adaptive step size and order control. Typical simulation results of a multistage industrial flue gas scrubbing process are presented. It is shown, that experimental data can be confirmed if the number concentration of condensation nuclei as an input parameter is roughly known.
